This proves that you don't understand the difference between a club that is a publicly listed company like Borussia Dortmund and other clubs that have no responsibility towards their shareholders. Dortmund has never decided to be bad and they have never decided to sell their best players because they wanted to make a lot of cash. It was quite the opposite. They did not sell Lewandowski, but instead kept him until the contract ran out and then he went to Bayern for free. But Dortmund has to do sustainable business and if they don't see a way out of a situation due to contract duration or clauses that allow the player to go elsewhere for a fixed fee, then they have no other choice but to play by those rules. This has nothing to do with Dortmund wanting to be bad as you put it.

Xabi and Leverkusen must remember that last season, Munich usurped Dortmund's position to bring the Bundesliga trophy by only scoring more goals and conceding less than Dortmund. That could also happen this season with Leverkusen, they are losing in goal productivity but they are not conceding more goals than Munich.
Leverkusen still has to pay attention to all of this so they don't have regrets at the end of the season. Dortmund is unlikely to catch up this season. and there is only rivalry between the two teams, Munich and Leverkusen. Hopefully, Leverkusen can continue to maintain the points difference.

Although Bayer Leverkusen is still unbeaten until now but yes, because Bayer Leverkusen gets a draw quite often too, these results make Bayer Leverkusen position at the top of the Bundesliga standings not entirely safe . Because anyway, currently Bayer Leverkusen and Bayern Munich also only have a difference of 2 points, 4 draws for Bayer Leverkusen while Bayern Munich has 2 draws and 2 losses but the fact is that their point gap is still very close . Therefore, although it was previously assumed that Bayern Munich lost the chance to take over the top position, but in reality Bayern Munich still has a good chance to be able to return to the top of the standings and get the Bundesliga trophy again this season, the competition is clearly very tight.

It's fascinating to see how the Leverkusen vs Bayern Munich match holds so much significance with just a 2-point difference in the standings. Leverkusen's recent draw was unexpected, given their previous advantage in quality over Mönchengladbach. However, Mönchengladbach's solid defense posed a formidable challenge. The fact that Leverkusen is competing at the top adds an exciting dimension to the Bundesliga, injecting more competitiveness into the league. Looking forward to the clash and how it shapes the season ahead,


Despite being held to a draw in the first half, Dortmund showcased resilience and secured an impressive 3-1 victory against Bochum, ensuring they didn't disappoint their fans as hosts. The statistics speak volumes with Dortmund dominating possession at 63% and landing 6 shots on target. Fullkrug's hat trick certainly stole the show, making him the standout player. Bochum's only goal came from a fortunate moment, thanks to Dortmund defender Schlotterbeck's unfortunate situation. These crucial 3 points not only secure Dortmund's return to the top 4 but also come at an opportune moment, especially with Leipzig's recent defeat opening up a path for them in the standings,

It was unlucky episode for Leverkusen with their dominance in various aspects of the game. Despite creating multiple attempts and coming close to scoring, they were unable to secure a win. But it's still noteworthy that Leverkusen remains the only undefeated team in the league. The recent dip in Bayern's form could indeed be seen as an advantage for Leverkusen in the title race.

With 15 more games left for both teams, it's too early to predict a clear winner, and the face to face clash between Leverkusen and Bayern Munich on February 10 will give something to favor the winner on the the title race. The fact that their last encounter ended in a draw at Allianz Arena suggests a competitive balance, and the upcoming match at BayArena provides another opportunity for either team to make a significant statement in the title race. As the season progresses, the form, injuries, and performances of both Leverkusen and Bayern Munich will play a crucial role in determining the eventual champion.

Dortmund vs VfL Bochum In the match of these two teams, Dortmund team scored 1 goal in the first 3 minutes of the game. After that, they did not score any more goals before halftime. However, Dortmund team showed a great performance after halftime. VfL Bochum team scored one goal in this match. VfL Bochum  The performance of the team players was bad from the beginning to the end of the game due to which VfL Bochum team could not win this match. Dortmund team won the match by scoring 3 goals in this match.

Bayer Leverkusen have undoubtedly been the best team in the German Bundesliga since the start of the season and still looks very much strong to still finish the season as the winners if the German Bundesliga title even when their top scorer this season Victor Boniface have been out injured.

However we must not forget that their rivals Bayern Munich is also the strongest team in the German league in terms of quality of players and now that the top two sides in the German Bundesliga standings are separated by just two points, I think Xabi Alonso's men have got something to worry about on that one. In the last 11 seasons in the German league, Bayern Munich have dominated the league and considering that they have a lethal striker like Harry Kane who's never won a trophy as player, Bayern Munich are still trying to make sure they finish the season with the league title. So for Leverkusen to lay their hands in the German Bundesliga trophy at the end of the season, they really need to be at their best till the end of the season

it was indeed a bad result for Leverkusen. Moreover, in the previous meeting, they won 0-3 at home to Gladbach. but yesterday's match was a goalless draw.
but Gladbach's performance has been inconsistent. they also beat Stuffgart who are currently also at the top of the Bundesliga standings. surprising result but that's football. sometimes we have to admit what we didn't expect. I lost my bet on that match.

Draw against a team like Monchengladbach was an unlucky incident for the team. Leverkusen were dominant in every expects and created multiple attempts to the post but missed the by a little margin or prevented by the keeper or the defender. Still Leverkusen is the only team undefeated in this league.
The deteriorated form of Bayren Munich is an advantage for Leverkusen. With 15 more games left for both of the team, it's still early to call out a winner and the ultimate decision could be met when these team meet again, It was a draw the last time they met at Allianz Arena and now they are meeting again on February 10, this time at BayArena.

They were safe not loosing points but then they needed to be a bit above were they are now because that isn't a safe zone at all, any slightest opportunity Munich gets now they will be ahead of Leverkusen, settling for a draw was a weak Result which gave only but little to their race to winning the league this season.

Leverkusen will sure try to be at their best now knowing that they are now very close to been overtaken by Munich and all it takes is just winning a single match and Munich will be ahead of them, it's looking like Munich is already fighting so hard to redeem it's days of dominance in the bundesliga again because currently it takes them to win a match and Leverkusen to either loose or draw a match and they will be up there at the top of the table again ant trying to maintain their dominance this time.

Two points remaining is not a big number and this is not safe for Leverkusen because it is feared that when the two meet, Bayern Munich will steal three points in the match so that Leverkusen returns to second place in the standings. Xabi Alonso must remain consistent for the next few matches and he must no longer play draws if he doesn't want Bayern Munich to take over the standings.

The match results are still sufficient Not too bad because they were still able to draw even though they had to lose two points and that was much better compared to Bayern Munich who lost to a team that was not too strong. I think the next match will be much easier and Leverkusen must really get full points if they don't want to give Bayern Munich the chance to emerge as champions and Leverkusen must play consistently until the end of the season.

A two point lead over Bayern Munich is very unsafe for Bayer Leverkusen because the two teams will meet in Week 21 on 11 February. The only problem Bayer Leverkusen faced when facing Borussia Monchengladbach was their lack of clinical skills in completing opportunities, of course this problem is a weakness that must be resolved before they face Bayern Munich at BayArena.

Bayern Munich are very enthusiastic after they are only two points behind Leverkusen, the burning enthusiasm will certainly give a different feel when these two teams face each other. Tuchel is very enthusiastic about his team's current performance, while Xabi Alonso must find solutions to increase the use of opportunities.
The coach's ingenuity will be tested in this big match, whoever wins this match will be the leader of the standings.

The idea that Tuchel wants to leave Bayern Munich for Barcelona creates more questions than answers. Since Barcelona is in chaos on and off the pitch, why would he consider it? Barcelona's troubles are well known, but managing a club with such a rich history is appealing. Financial problems, erratic performance.a With Kane leading the way, Tuchel should strive on finishing strong in Munich given his past. UCL and domestic titles may solidify his Bayern legacy.

However, we are wondering about his move at a crucial Bundesliga period. Barcelona is charming, but Bayern has the potential to become legendary. Tuchel's ability to revitalize Barcelona is as important as his willingness to end a project he's only started. He might ruin or strengthen his career with this gamble. Fans await change but hope for stability

Union Berlin does not need many goals to stay away from the relegation zone because yes, which Union Berlin needs is consistent to get points for wins and draws. If Union Berlin can consistently get points in each match whether it's with a win or a draw, then these results will certainly make Union Berlin safe to stay in the Bundesliga . After all, with a gap of 5 points at this time is clearly still a safe position for Union Berlin because yes, after all Union Berlin is not in the relegation zone. But indeed, because Union Berlin is in the lower zone, then it should be Union Berlin to improve its position at least to the middle position of the standings.

I hope Leverkusen can maintain its performance. Yesterday's draw was indeed unsatisfactory. but they still didn't lose any points, so they were still pretty safe.
I hope the battle between the two will continue until the end of the season. Munich probably won't let it happen because they will try hard to knock off Leverkusen who are looking very impressive.
In a few weeks, they will compete. and it will be an interesting match when rivals meet to fight for the top of the standings.

Yes, this is more of a concern that Union Berlin must have because it is not easy to experience a drastic decline in performance and without any clear problems they started the season with endless bad results. Luckily, in this half season they have been able to improve it a little and of course this victory alone is not enough to make them safe. They must get victory after victory and they must not be careless just because they can breathe a little easier.

The matches will clearly be more difficult and there are no easy matches for Union Berlin to go through in the remainder of this season because they have lost too many games since the start of the season. The need to increase intensive training to strengthen players' physicality and vision must be carried out by their coaches at this time. Despite all that, they can start to be better next season and this season they just need to stay in the Bundesliga and don't get relegated.

Recently, Thomas Tuchel has been heavily linked with several teams apart from Barcelona he is also linked with Manchester United, what is even more surprising is that Thomas Tuchel has not ruled out the possibility of leaving Bayern Munchen. If you ask why Thomas Tuchel is interested in moving, I think the reason is because he hasn't been able to overtake Leverkusen at the top of the standings, surprisingly Leverkusen is still strong in the standings with an unbeaten record well, in a situation like this maybe Thomas Tuchel feels pressured and has failed so moving to another club is the solution.

But I also have other opinions, for example if Munich manages to win one of the Bundesliga titles or the Champions League, maybe Thomas Tuchel will take another option, meaning he is still worth keeping to handle Bayern Munich, I believe Bayern Munich still has a chance to win the title this season. We'll see what the situation is like at the end of the season because several options are still available.

Well, that match was very good, the truth is that Leverkusen attacked and attacked without being successful in scoring a goal, I know we are so used to seeing a Leverkusen always victorious, but for me they didn't lose much, it's a good idea to get 1 point when In Reality they dropped or stopped winning 2 more points, as it weighs on the Bundleisga, as it could mean Falling behind against a team as powerful as Bayern, and that is something that they should take advantage of, but I really admire the way they played, For me, Lervekusen has not lowered its level , it's just that things have not been given to them as they are, their approach has been very good, they have great things for which they were able to do well, they were attacking all the time, they did not understand that, I don't know how the team could resist so much, I can't deny that they did very well , and the coach understood the game that They have lost, as I said previously, Bayern is a very excellent team, they know that they must take advantage of these things and it remains to be seen how they can do it later.

Even so, Leverkusen is giving a lot to talk about, and the teams play with the same intensity as a Bayern because they know that they are in the first places and that matters, the teams know that if they can get a draw against Leverkusen it is a golden point , it's like a gift that they get, in any case Failures are easy to see when they are doing things well, therefore we as good fans must understand that sometimes great teams enter a phase where things do not go Well , Whatever they call it, lack of luck or something. Sometimes things Don't turn out the way you want them to.

I watched Xabi Alonso's Bayer Leverkusen and one moment proved he should replace Jurgen Klopp at Liverpool




It's like this, things with Tuchel have or could have a lot of future, however when we don't know how to see, when it comes to Bayern, everyone starts to think that they are taking first place and starting to make a difference. good ride as they always do in the Bundeslga, however the entity can no longer be saying that the Bundeslga is boring or something like that, because things are not like that, for me this team is fighting with everything or that they have and obviously when it comes to doing things better, they appear with everything they can do, this is the only thing I say that they can be doing differently, I am not inclined to think about anything with certainty, I always like what he has done. Bayern, but I like what Leverkuisen has done more, it is an impressive thing and they have also won the affection of many, for me they are all warriors, and if the Bunldesliga is won again by Bayern then it will have its great merit, pr It's deserved, because right now how Leverkusen is playing and even so for them to go ahead is impressive.

I cannot deny that the work of Leverkusen shows the hand of Xabi Alonso, because he is a coach who is doing well. In fact, it is great news that he has not gone to Madrid and that Ancelotti has stayed, because this shows how great that he could be within the team, he often said that if in Maadrid or they needed him he would not be afraid to leave, even though he was doing so well in a team like Leverkusen, I hope that the Bundesliga continues to give us these moments and be like this, because basically things with the players usually look very good and they can be doing differently , for me Xabi is one of the best players in the world and at the same time one of the best coaches in the world , worthy of having been a great Madrid player.

Liverpool legend emerging as frontrunner to succeed Jurgen Klopp as manager

The draw they got yesterday against Gladbach was certainly very surprising, the additional one point is of course not a result that Alonso can be proud of because the gap in points will continue to be reduced by Bayern Munich. Yes, but I still think that Leverkusen will continue to hunt for another win in the next match before they really have to fight with their strong rival FC Hollywood. Xabi Alonso certainly understands his squad very well and he knows what he has to do to keep his team on the winning track. I also see that Alonso doesn't feel any pressure at all compared to Tuchel who always gets sharp attention from fans, this on the other hand will also really interfere with the coach's performance. However, what is clear is that the battle between the Bayern duo will be very interesting until the end of the season.

I also agree more if Tuchel wants to stay at Bayern Munich rather than leaving there for Barcelona, because Barcelona doesn't just need a great coach like Tuchel. But it also requires several great players in several lines to be able to improve its performance to be even better, because currently Barcelona's decline is increasingly visible. Meanwhile, Bayern Munich is still quite good with its performance this season and is even still a candidate for the Bundesliga title.
